27th Sept Trial and driving day

Post by toomanytoys »

OK.. last trial this year for the local club.. and its going to be an "promotion day" also

Come and enter the trial event - £15, £10 for additional drivers, £5 day membership.
Or if you just want to drive on the open course (whole site will be open after trials completed) £5 + £5 day membership.

Its a nice little site in a dissused quarry.. with plenty of challenges..

Would really like a couple or 4 Syncro's to come... The club have activly asked all year if some other Syncros would come, but so far its only been me.. :roll:
Camping at my place if you like..

Event is located just North of Sleaford. I am just South east of Sleaford.

Yes Simon,
This one comes along at a good time for me.

Would you like me to send bucks now or later.

Simon,
Well, I took the family yesterday to the NIA in Birmingham to see the dinosaurs (BBC Walking with Dinosaurs Show) there and back = 225 miles. My back was as sore as hell coming home but managed it ..... safely. I even got the old girl touching 80 mph at one point (going downhill, I may add).

Absolutely shattered last night and this morning and will probably take 48 hrs to get over the fatigue! With your permission, I'd like to come up a day or so early (don't mind paying extra at all) so I can take in all the advice and guidance offered, because if I'm tired, I'm less able for info to permeate effectively into what's left of the brain-cells I have.

Am I right in thinking you live approx 230 miles from me (My postcode is cf83 1qy)?

Hi
Come on Friday if you like... Sat could be a "maintenance day" if there are any items that need looking at/servicing...
Is your van "camperized"? so you can sleep in it?
Travel back on the monday.. of course, thats if your time allows that.. :wink:

Any more fancy coming then?

What a cracking day.. some challenging new routes... fantastic weather and a great turn out (non syncro :( )
Again surprised some that hadnt seen it in action.... more rides for those that were fascinated...

Really must sort some pics out and get some vid uploaded...... wish I was more computer literate... :roll:
